I am a doctoral level Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Florida. I graduated with a master's degree in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University in 2005 and my Doctorate in Social Work in 2023. I am currently teaching at a local university, but spent 20 years working with a variety of individuals from the very young to the aged. My clients have dealt with a wide range of issues including grief and loss, anxiety, depression, sexual abuse and trauma, addiction, and codependency. I am passionate about helping others and always feel privileged to be able to walk with someone on their journey. We are all human beings with life experiences that shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world around us, but there comes a point where want to break free from those past experiences and create a new vision. I am a relational therapist and have been trained in many different treatment modalities including EMDR, DBT, and CBT. I tend to utilize interventions and techniques grounded in Solution Focused and Cognitive Behavioral therapies depending on the clients' individualized needs. I believe everyone has the power within themselves to create the life they want, sometimes it just takes a little support and guidance to help us start moving in the right direction. I would love to be that support for you!

It takes tremendous courage and strength to ask for help and allow another person into your life when you feel vulnerable and alone. It has been my honor to work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families for the past several years to promote healing and growth. I strongly believe in utilizing a strength-based approach that promotes a partnership between my clients and I so that we may achieve their personal goals together! I specialize in diverse mental health concerns including, but not limited to trauma, behavioral issues, substance abuse/dependency disorders, bereavement, anxiety, depression, anger management, and interpersonal relationship issues. I originally completed my MS in Rehab Counseling in 2013 and my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in December of 2022 so that I may continue to effectively address my client's unique needs.
